extra annoying from liberals bc it’s actually the same as what we hear from the right. And makes it quite clear how much liberals are fine with treating people as disposable as long as they perceive themselves individually to not be at risk.

Try to protect yourself or don’t, but screaming back that long covid isn’t really a problem or acting like it’s a ridiculous suggestion that you treat an airborne virus as an airborne virus and protect yourself, while the govt dismantles health care piece by piece,

Is right wing ideology. And it’s

far right lunatic screaming about having your freedoms taken away by someone suggesting you mask sometimes, when no liberal or conservative politicians are anywhere close to requiring you to mask, is tiresome.

Public health is a group project, but we are left to fend for ourselves.

Quite clearly, no one is mandating you to wear a mask, whatever anyone thinks about whether or when you should.

But you COULD, even sometimes, on public transit or grocery stores or other busy spaces. And you might (likely) prevent yourself or someone else getting long COVID, so acting like a

I’m not gonna repost someone’s nonsense about not knowing anyone personally with long covid meaning things are fine, but

we scream about it because there’s little support, a lot of suffering, many ppl who can’t work or go to school, + we actually don’t want you to become one of us. You’re welcome.

I also think it’s ridiculous to think we could overlook genocides, some funded and enabled by the U.S., but expect we are able to defend democracy

If genocide isn’t your red line, I have a hard time believing democracy is

There is no way out of our mess in the U.S. w/out solidarity with all people

Yep and some of us weren’t chronically ill or disabled before Covid, and had functioning immune systems. They don’t understand it bc they don’t want to understand it could be them too

The Regime's goal is to grind everyone down. Plain & simple. Our goal is to refuse this by taking turns to fight where and how we can. When one group needs to bow out, then another group needs to step in and so on. We don't all have to do everything. We can all do something though. Stay in the fight

MTG recently discovered women aren’t treated equally.

If only there were a whole body of thinking and activism devoted to dismantling sexism…

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

Yes we did and way back in the day, they were shorter/easier to memorize bc we didn’t even need area codes to call locally

I would like to see more of this research + subsequent action, and less on chronic absenteeism that doesn’t even mention long covid or that more children have it than asthma.

Me: you can sing along and enjoy your music, but please stop climbing on me and screaming along with the music

6 yo: you can just put on noise cancelling headphones if you don’t want to hear it

You’d think Republican capitalists would care about, except the goal seems to be make people suffer rather than make sure everyone has what they need to be able to participate in society, including work and school.

This is awful for disabled kids.

It’s also awful for their parents who are trying to balance caregiving and advocacy for their children with their own work and/or school. It’s also awful for businesses whose employees will be stretched thinner trying to advocate for their children’s needs, which..

Conservatives have built their own social media platforms, Trump has his own Twitter alternative, his allies are buying major social media platforms to weaponize for their propaganda and influence and we’re still arguing if having a left-leaning social media platform is a bad thing

The regime fired everyone involved in the funding and administration of IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act).

They’re letting measles and other infectious and disabling diseases run rampant, and then removing disability support.

It’s eugenics and they aren’t even hiding it.

RIFing the Office of Special Education & Rehab Services while the President touts firing “democrat agencies” is the clearest way to say Republicans don’t give a shit about children with disabilities and their access to education and services

This week in 1988: 1,000+ ACT UP demonstrators shut down the FDA headquarters, demanding (and eventually winning) action on developing HIV/AIDS treatments. ACT UP's militant and creative actions always included powerful visual artwork, and paved the way for movements in the decades to come.

Or try hanging on a hanger on the outside of the shower curtain while you take a hot shower. Very effective!

Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.

I wrote a little about some of the little details you might have missed in this video and why it hit me so hard as a trans person this morning:

Tens of millions of people have died from Covid.

Every country should have responded with record investments in public health infrastructure.

Instead the US government is putting us all at greater risk of more catastrophes by firing hundreds of top scientists whose job is to prevent outbreaks.
